Once upon a time, there was a boy named John who played on a rugby team. He was their best player but he was injured, so he couldn’t play. The entire team was scared because it was the final game and they were vs. the top of the table.
But John, their best player, had a plan. He would come to the game and tell them what to do.
So the day came — the final: Warriors vs. Raiders. Who would win?
The first try was scored by the Raiders. They also got the kick. 6–0 to the Raiders. The Warriors were scared, but John had a plan. He saw an opening. He yelled, and they passed it out wide, so Harris Tavita passed it to Dallin Watene and he scored. But they missed the kick. 4–6.
John didn’t care because he knew what to do. He saw a chance to score and yelled, “Run through the middle!” So they ran through the middle and scored, and they got the kick. 10–6. The Warriors were finally in the lead. Then came half-time. Both teams came off the field. John congratulated the team but told them, “There are still 40 more minutes.” Then the buzzer rang. The second half started.
In the first 15 minutes, the Raiders scored. 10–10. Tie game. Five minutes to go, 10 all. Who would win?
Suddenly John saw a gap. “Run to the corner!” he yelled. So they ran to the corner. 3… 2… 1… They scored just in the nick of time, and they got the kick. They won!
“Woohoo!” John was so happy.
